Hey everyone! Here's a fun little exercise, (it is practical, but I'm posting it here because I thought it would be fun to see what kind of things people came up with)
it's possible my wizard will end up being in a duel with an archmage (a custom archmage who has a grudge is specifically preparing spells to kill me while we participate in a Triwizard type tournament), so only rely on him having access to all 9 levels of spells), and I wanted to think up some fun ways to prepare for the battle ahead (the group may or may not be able to help). We are kitted out and have been playing from Lvl 1 for about a year and a half, so we are strong but our challenges are always insane too!
About Ben (me):
Lvl 15 Forest Gnome Wizard
School of Invention(UA)
Str: 8
Dex: 16
Con: 16
Int: 22
Wis:10
Cha: 8
Feats:
Resilient Con
Fade Away
Shield Training
Attuned:
Stone of True Sight
Staff of Power
magic Studded Leather(+1 to AC, Spell DC, and all Saves, +2 AC when concentrating)
Additional magical items I own:
Cape of Montebank
Portable hole (I built a tiny gnome workshop in it)
2 bags of holding (one empty, one containing a simulacrum)
Decanter of endless water
Boots of Elvenkind
rings of swimming and water walking
Pole of extending
Duplicitous Manuscript(Not attuned)
Family Spellbook(not attuned)
Astromancy Archive(Not Attuned)
total base AC = 18(20 when concentrating)
I generally have lvl 5 Aid with 21 inspiring leadership temp HP and deathward at all times.
My familiar has slowly been upgraded to a lvl 3 cleric sidekick (a product of being an invention Wizard) and is attuned to a ring of spell storing and a wand of magic missiles.
I have had a lvl 12 simulacrum of myself stored in a bag of holding (with sequester) for a while just in case as well, and I've been thinking about making a homunculus...

The last time we faced off I blinded the wizard, then he used TimeStop to help flee, so we know he has lvl 9 spells and he specifically said he's gonna try to kill us. Since it's like a Triwizard tournament, he might even convince another competitor to team up with him.
We're in a Wizard's school, so if I don't have a spell I can probably find it. Also, teammates: Sorcerer, Cleric, Paladin (mentioned for ring of Spell Storing ideas. I already ride a greater steed Pegasus).
What spells should I prepare?
what are some options for contingency?
What are some options for the ring of spell storing?
What are some good combos? I can prepare?
